WASHINGTON. Jan. 4.-Gov. Church, OF
Dakota, has scored point on Washington
newspaper men. He came east week be-
fore last, unknown to everybody, went to
his old home on Long Island, and then
came over to Washington last Thursday.
His Old friend w. E. Smith secured room
for him at the Arlington, and he was able
to keep his incognito by forgetting to reg
lister i'll the office. Saturday Judge Church
took train for the West While here he
saw the president. and had a full confer
ence with him in regard to Dakota affairs.
The subject of admission was thoroughly
gone over, and Judge Church was able to
give the president information he had not
dreamed of before. Judge Church also
asked the presidents advice ABOUT removing
territorial officials and appointing his
friends. The president, it is understood
told Judge Church to play no monkey
shines just because he had got into big
Office. but to go slow. and be sure to keep
good men in Office and turn rascalS out.

WANT TO EMOVE IT,
South Dakota Legislators Want the
Ca pital in the South.

South Oak tse Legislators want the
Capital in the South.
Special to the Globe.
YANKToN. Oak, Jan. 1.-The question
which is of the most vital importance to
the people of Dakota. and which will early
occupy the attention of the legislature, is
the removal of the capital to some point
within the pale of civilization. LAS an
act of justice" says a prominent member
Of this legislature, ''or from purely sell
fish motive of self defense, the capital
of Dakota should be returned
to Yankton, from whence it can
be removed to more central location than
that which it Low occupies" The Canton
Advocate, Delegate Gitford'S organ, has
this to say in favor of the repeal OF the cap
ital commission act and the return of the
seat of government to this city
| In the first place the expense of retaining
the territorial capital at Bismarck is enor-
| nous. The great bulk of the wealth and
| population of the territory is situated south
OF the fOrty-siXth parallel, and the great ter
| ritorial schools, penitentI aries and other in
| stitutioEs are naturally all located where the
| people can conveniently get at them. The
| rapidly developing portion of South Dakota
! known as the Black Hills can reach Yankton
| bv rail; the great corn-raising and gilt-edged
| agricultural gold mine known as southeast
| ern Dakota is but q stone-throw from Yauk-
| ton, and the gigantic mines of wealth known
| as the wheat fields Of central Dakota are en-
| abled to reach this South Dakota town over
| two or three great lines of railway. Three
| hundred and fifty thousand people are Stu
! ated easy of access to any South Dakota town;
| $4,000 people are not particular
where they go, and $4,000 people pre-
| fer Bismarck. This is the situation, aud an
overpowering majority Of the people of Da-
kota is compelled to pay tribute to an insig-
niffcant mnort, of seal-hunters, hardy cow
| boys and EsQumauX in the north.
An attempt will be made early in the
session to remove the capital from Bis
marck, but whether Yankton will be the
objective point or some other South Dakota
town, is not settled. The people of Yank-
ton have no personal grievance against Bis
marck but only with The manner in which
the capital was removed. The territorial
Indebtedness is constantly increasing, and
the retention Of the seat of government at
Bismarck is looked upon as men ce to the
peace and prosperity of South Dakota. 1t
is from this seat of corruption that the
schemes for the elevation OF monopolies and
the depression of the farmer emanate, and
already word has been passed along the line
by the Bismarck rngleaders that the in
coming session of the legislature must be
captured by the North regardless of eX-
pense or principle. The members of both
branches of the legislature from South Da-
kota stand solid for the removal of the cap
| ital, and it is thought this measure can be
carried through with rouSng majority.

Caught From a stove Pipe.

MankatO Journal.
The fire which burned the Mapleton
Touring mills started on the second floor
and caught from stovepipe that was near
the floor. The mill is a total wreck. With
it 5000 bushels of wheat were burned of
which some was owned by farmers of that
vicinity. William Mcqueen had 500 BUSH
els and William Green 800. Most of the
flour was saved. Unfortunately there was
no insurance and the mill is total loss to
Mr.. Peet. The mill was one of the best in
the county and is heavy loss to Mapleton.
Mr.. Peet has the sympathy of the people of
that locality, and if he should rebuild no
doubt he would receive much assistance
from Mapleton and vicinity.
